    I can't imagine designing and building anything so large. Very impressive! 😊😊😊
  • Great video folks, love it. A couple of months we finished our first epoxy grout at a wave machine, it was an absolute privilege to work with that kind of machine.
  • @shotwaffel2642
    I know its well thought out, calculated and simulated. Can you imagine if your crew mate was like "dont worry bro they tested a toy model of the ship we gucci"

    6:53 Kim Yo Landa on the right there saying "dunno bout you lads, but I dont think this is the Paintball Centre"

    I remember as a kid seeing this kind of testing. I wished I had a big pool with a port and boats I could pretend with lol
  • @michaelmcwhirter
    Invaluable information for when I own my own shipping company one day. Thank you!

    So what would happen if one were to say... Lose power, and control knocking a giant bridge down? 🤔
  • @frankcherry3810
    These ‘Testing’ pools are quite interesting. You can pretty much know how the Sea-Trials will turn out
  • @chaostrading
    given you have the right knowledge and passion this seems like such an awesome job
  • @pismodoug1321
    Wonderful times we live in, very interesting video. Hard to fathom 58 knot speed on a vessel with such a large displacement.
  • @Flails
    The cruel treatment of these ships will really bring a tear to your eye😢

    I can’t tell if the script was written by an AI or an 8th grader who just learned about adjectives and is trying to pad the word count of their paper.

    IF ONLY THEY TESTED THE SHIPS ABILITY TO NOT DROP THE DAMN CONTAINERS IN ROUGH SEA. LAST WEEK MÆRSK JUST DROPPED 46 CONTAINERS OFF THE COAST OF DENMARK 🤯

    "The designers engineer a perfect design between form and function." Nope it's actually more like 100 % function.
